    Usually they eat the outside of the tyre when the tracking is out (which happens every time it sees a pothole)

    They’re well perished, and look older than their 3 years. Trying to decide what to replace them them with. They’re 275/40/20 Dunlop runflats if anyone has an opinion on an alternative?
    It has to be a recognised brand as they’ll be on the car when it gets sold (no point assuming I’ll keep this one for years, 1.5 years is pushing it now as it is).

    What's the date stamp on the sidewalls ? Just because they were fitted 3 years ago doesn't mean the tyres themselves are only 3 years old.....
